Default Front splitter

Hi all gutted today, about four weeks ago I purchased a front splitter from scoobyworld I've been waiting to fit it and had some time spare today, got the car in the garage put the cover on the floor went to fit the splitter looks like it is the wrong one, doesn't line up at all, I think maybe it's a STI ONE, GUTTED to say the least.

Could be, or for the wrong year? What car/model/year do you have, and is it the stock front end?

Hi buddy yes that's the only thing, the car has a prodrive kit fitted from the factory it is a 2005 wrx but I would have thought the front bumper would have been a stock wrx or did they change the bumper for when they put the prodrive kit on?

Hi buddy, no when I purchased it it said in the description just to make sure I told them it was for the wrx and not the STI as they were different fit nets, I think they've just sent the wrong one, hopefully they'll sort it after xmas

Here's the front end in the daylight I just found stamped on the splitter WRX 03-05 so not sure now unless it's not a standard WRX FRONT BUMPER? Any ideas welcome

Yes thats a STi V Limited splitter. To fit that you will need the winglets, however I do a splitter just for the WRX bumper & its the STI V Limited design to.
